[Verse 1]

Dear Mom

Do you remember back when

Jarring pickles, riding the mail car, a couple best friends

Dear Mom

Been a while since 5

Now we're road tripping to the Joe off of I-35

Then your worries started changing

I was 24 and overseas

They called me Doc in 601 Company

And it didn't take long 'til I fell flat on my face

You were there to pick me up, so I got saved

[Chorus]

Dear Mom

Know I put you through hell

I lie to myself but you believed in me like no one else

You're the reason can't you see

This heart on my sleeve still beats

And I ain't ringing that bell

If you ask me who to thank for this life

And why I'm still alive

Ain't no doubt in my mind it's my dear Mom

[Verse 2]

Found the love of my life

Your grandkids these dogs

Yeah they're doing all right

Dear Mom

You've seen a lot of sacrifice

But these days it's happy tears in our eyes

Cause of my

[Chorus]

Dear mom

Know I put you through hell

I lie to myself but you believed in me like no one else

You're the reason can't you see

This heart on my sleeve still beats

And I ain't ringing that bell

If you ask me who to thank for this life

And why I'm still alive

Yeah there ain't no doubt in my mind it's my dear Mom

It's my dear Mom

[Verse 3]

Dear Mom

Thank you for saving me

When I was trying to save everyone else

Other than myself

[Chorus]

Dear Mom

I know I put you through hell

I lie to myself but you believed in me like no one else

You're the reason can't you see

This heart on my sleeve still beats

And I ain't ringing that bell

If you ask me who to thank for this life

And why I'm still alive

Ain't no doubt in my mind it's my dear Mom
